Abstract
In the past, the topic of dialysis membrane biocompatibility had been viewed by some dialysis personnel to be limited to intradialytic anaphylactoid reactions. In contrast, bioengineers considered biocompatibility to encompass any interactions between biomaterial and the body (1). Besides leukopenia and complement activation, investigative efforts in recent years have focused on neutrophil function and peripheral blood mononuclear cells due to their potential effects on long-term clinical outcome. Thrombogenesis is an area that has received relatively little attention in the last 15 years. However, it has become increasingly clear that cellular and noncellular constituents of blood as well as the vascular endothelium interact in a complex manner, such that these systems (e.g., coagulation and complement cascades) cannot be considered in an isolated manner. This chapter will start from the standpoint of clinical disorders that are related to dialysis membrane biocompatibility. The pathophysiology that may explain these individual entities and the general mechanisms of bioincompatibility will be briefly discussed.
